In this post-genomic era, biochemistry is uniquely poised at the nexus between molecular structure and molecular function integration with the goal of understanding how the functions of thousands of encoded proteins and noncoding RNAs serve to bring about the highly coordinated behavior of cells underlying various microenvironmental conditions in organisms and how these interactions may be further applied to translational biosciences.
The research of our department focuses at the central dogma of molecular biology – replication, transcription and translation with the perspective views of structural and functional interaction and application in synthetic biology, paving the road to biochemical industry.
